Ora Lightning Cat becomes a wagon

Ora has expanded its Lightning Cat EV lineup, adding a new body style called Travel Edition.

It’s a wagon with new bumpers, a tailgate and a taller roofline at the back. Other than that, it looks largely the same as its liftback cousin.

A LiDAR on the roof suggests that the Travel Edition packs a SAE Level 2+ self-driving system that the liftback lacks. Ora has yet to supply all the details, but Level 2+ cars can change lanes when necessary, steer on normal roads and brake in front of sudden obstacles.
